WMG and Illerhaus Marketing are organising a MICE Networking Lounge in Wolfsburg

Wolfsburg, 3 November 2026 – On 26 November 2026, the Illerhaus MICE Networking Lounge Wolfsburg 2026 will take place at the ZeitHaus in the Autostadt, followed by the Wolfsburg Famtrip on 27 and 28 November 2026. The Wolfsburg Convention Bureau, part of Wolfsburg Wirtschaft und Marketing GmbH (WMG), together with Illerhaus Marketing, welcomes trade visitors from the events industry. The event is particularly aimed at event planners, agencies and staff from regional companies who plan and organise conferences, congresses, client events, meetings or team-building events as part of their work. Participation is free of charge for qualified trade visitors.

“As a conference and event venue, Wolfsburg has more to offer than many realise. With the MICE Networking Lounge, we are creating a format where planners can experience the diversity of the destination for themselves,” says Ines Simon, Head of the Wolfsburg Convention Bureau at WMG. “We are particularly looking forward to welcoming staff from regional companies who organise events as part of their day-to-day work. Over these three days, we will be bringing our services together and enabling all those involved to engage in direct conversation with one another.”

The Networking Lounge promotes networking with MICE decision-makers as well as personal exchanges with industry colleagues and 28 exhibitors. Ten partners will be showcasing their offerings together in the Wolfsburg Area, alongside 18 national exhibitors from across Germany. The focus is on making new contacts and gaining inspiration for upcoming events. The event will conclude with an evening in a relaxed atmosphere at The Ritz-Carlton Wolfsburg.

For companies in the region, direct contact with venues and service providers streamlines the research process and provides new ideas for their own event planning. The format is therefore explicitly aimed not only at event managers. As qualified trade visitors, assistants who are entrusted with organising meetings, conferences and corporate events within their companies are also welcome.

The Wolfsburg Famtrip on 27 and 28 November 2026 forms the second part of the programme. Participants will get to know selected event and conference venues, gain behind-the-scenes insights and discover Wolfsburg as a destination from new perspectives. The programme provides inspiration for meetings, conferences and incentives.

The Wolfsburg Convention Bureau at WMG is working to further position Wolfsburg as an attractive conference destination. It provides free support to event planners in organising and planning events in Wolfsburg, promotes the city at trade fairs and supports the local MICE sector through initiatives such as the Wolfsburg MICE Network Meeting.

The number of participants is limited. Those interested can register directly with the Wolfsburg Convention Bureau at WMG by emailing [email protected] or by telephone on 05361 89994-77, and can obtain further information.
